Election is so close even Dixville Notch was a 3-3 tie

It has local elements, sure. Selzer barely weights her polls, other than by district, sex, age, she just knows her state. But these trends are being seen across the plains. There is little-polled Kansas, with a Trump +5 poll getting a lot of attention. There's Nebraska with a recent Trump...

Well, Selzer is not a left wing biased poll. It's two biggest misses in the last two decades were overestimating the dems, yes, by 5 or 6 points, although apply that here and make it Trump+3, everyone on the left is happy. But in 2020, when everyone was predicting a Biden blowout, she came out...

Well, there's the Selzer poll, and that's just completely changed the shape of the race for me. I'm still nervous about the result, but, it's the Selzer poll, THE gold standard in polling. The same poll that totally upended the perceived wisdom about the 2020 race, and to a lesser extent 2016...

Worst decision we ever made ;)

Football eh. If we'd have got a point at Newcastle and won today we'd all be happy. Other way round and we want to slit our wrists

Fairly sure we have had a starting lineup without one, seem to remember it being mentioned on here - but don't quote me on that

Nah, its unfair and its silly to try and make scapegoats. A terrible pass, but one pass. They still had to get through our defence. He came on in similar circumstances against both Spurs and Newcastle and did well. Baleba cant do 90 minutes yet.

Few players look good restricted to 10-15 minute cameos. See also Enciso. Nevertheless he did well when coming on at a similar time against both Spurs and Newcastle

Losing Dunk came back to bite us in the end

Its a single missed pass. Dreadful outcome, but come on man

Or they could have done it themselves, but yeah. Would just need their fan numbers

I see they have sold now, which is good, but you could have bought your seats in your friends names on the exchange, asked them for a tenner each, you would have your money back and your friends would have gone to the game. Surely they would have been happy to pay a tenner for an Albion ticket?

Yeah OK, thats fair enough, agree with your point - but I would just say that (i) we are coming from so far back that everything helps in this regard, and Brighton signing a high-profile overseas player moves the needle for us more than Man Utd doing the same does for them, (ii) Japan might be a...

Expanding our brand internationally surely HAS to equate to cash, no? The big six have revenues that dwarf ours, and that's not solely through European competitions, gate receipts and TV revenue. Instead this divide is driven by commercial revenue of which international sponsorships...

Entire squad, not including players loaned out to another club

Forget the net spend, if you want to properly compare the teams as of today its better to look at purchase cost of the squad - for which according to transfermarkt is 620m euros for Newcastle and 383m euros for Brighton. Their squad cost significantly more than ours so his point is shite.

Would only cost your friends about a tenner each to come with you - personally I'd bite your hand off for Albion tickets for that price!

They Yanks do it worse than that, we're currently 4-1-3. And Palace 0-5-3
